Any updates here? Is there a replacement kit for the ‘55 400?

I purchased one of the systems. As delivered does not fit in contact with company. Overall length is to long . Working on making new toe board to fit. Aside from the length issue very nice looking system. As to keeping car OEM no modification needed can be returned to original. I was afraid of failure of tredelvac failure and extensive damage to all the rare and expensive chrome parts that could be damaged in brake failure episode

I'm a bit disappointed about the pedal position still needing to be so low as to call attention to an obvious mod.

Am wondering how much too long the unit is and which approach you are taking so solve the length issue. I had a few thoughts but don't know if any are possible space wise without seeing an actual unit in place so just curious what you are coming up with.
